took out from under bsd-tick an old stock

he would lock her up for luck. She raved,
but ii was Of no avail. She was charged
with keeping house Of i'll fame. Marshall

Poets and Poetry of Cecil Count,

Mr.. Johnston visited Rising Sun
last week delivering his book. He
proposes to visit this part of the
county again and take orders for the
volume from persons who may desire
copy. AS collection of poetry the
book will not rank among the works Of
standard authors, but will be treas
ured more as memento by friends
than as a valuable collection of
poems. There is one writer, however,
Emma Alice Browne, who will be
placed with the group to which Long
fellow, Byant, Whittier and a few
other great American poets be-
long. Her genius raises the volume
into the realms of poetry. The bal
ance are generally clever rhymers.

"Quit Stealing"

call it plagiarism-the sum and sub
stance of the moralizing is habit of
stealing "locals" practiced, or rather
in general use among the newspaper
fraternity. Let 'em steal They
generally "steal trash" and the goods
have as many owners as Shakespeare
stolen purse. News proper belongs
to no one, aud is public property the
moment it is published. Better ad-
wise your typographical brethren to
quit lying. Their lying is of infinite.
" more harm than their stealing.
The one is trash while the lying so
MANY are addicted to is stealing the
good name of some one which '1eaves
him poor indeed" and takes what will
not benefit the purloiner.
A very fishy story it is always best
to credit, for self protection, if'not
from a sense of justice TO the origi-
nator, and also the brilliant editorial
theories, which flash through the
moral armament like meteors. The
originator can claim an inventors
right in these productions, but news
items belong to no one in particular.
The most industrious hound will
gather the most bones; and so it is

the County Commissioners, re-
ported in all the Cecil pap

did him injustice. He did not ap-

the meeting indicate, but he appeal

Stubs are road commissioners in the

amined the roads signed certificates
in favor of those supervisors whose

The bosrd of trustees of the Mary
land Agricultural College held a
meeting in Baltimore last week at
which a resolution was adopted Civ
ing notice to the members of the
faculty that their services would not
be required after the end of the ses-
sion. The board adjourned to meet
at the college on June 8, at 10 a. m.
The notice was given to enable the
board to make new contracts with
the faculty, and includes President
Smith as we'll as all the professors.
If they meyer again employ that
crowd it would be great gain to the
agricultural public of the state. The
so-called agricultural college has
been made roost, and rookery for
dead beat politicians ever since it's
establishment.
Building ouses for rent has pene-
trated the heads of the Elktonians,
and they find it safe and profitable
investment. 1t was a long time be-
fore, this idea took root, but the ex-
pertinent has proven that the de-
mand outruns the supply. 1t is the
centralizing of population which Gre
ates real estate values. When will
our monyed men of the Sun under
stand this fact, and invest their cap.
ital to increase population. An in
dustrious population creates wealth.
Real estate adjacent to a wealth
creating centre is always increasing
in value. Thousands of dollars go
from this county for cultivators,
which could be kept at home, or its
equivalent returned by the same
course of trade Birds improved cul.
tivator is pronounced the best or
among the best of the hundreds of
different makes on the market. The
resources of this centre that lie I'M
developed, are simply immense. An
increased population would tend to
their rapid development. Houses to
shelter that wonderful divine ma.
chine man, is the first step in the
line of development.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
Friday, May ~, 1882.
Constable and Groome Again.

The Whig published there had
been a treaty made between these
two contending powers, the main ar.
ticles CT which were that German and
Groome sh ould select the candidates
in Cecil for the legislature and dele.
gates to the State convention and
Constable should name the County
ticket.
This story the Ex-Governor con-
tradlcts, through the press, but the
Wing reiterates it. AS between it
and the Governor, the latter is in a
position to know the facts and in a
question of veracity with the news
papers will hold his own at least.
But whether this particular case is
true or only supposition, hundreds
of similar deals are made where pro
fessional politicians select tools
which they expect to use for person
al advantages.
It is the bane Of our politics
which allows o few "wire pullers" as
such adventures have been termed,
to take the public business into
their own hands, and coolly relieve
the tax payers and producing class
of all responsibility in public affairs.
The people are growing very tired
of this practice, and are showing
signs of vic lent kicking. This pub
lie servitude to political bosses is a
disgrace and reproach to the manhood
and boasted independence Of voters.
What interest in common have the
men who make these deals, with the
farmers and other line of industry?
They in general do not care a rush
for the the property of the State or
county, or the business which earns
all the taxes, and yet virtually be
made slaves of and are frightened
into the belief that it would be next
thing to crime to cut off and re.
fuse to vote for the unfit men set up
by concocLing politicians. By this
device these politicians Lave manag-
ed to govern and flch and waste the
peoples money by thousands. We
are glad to see that things in this re.
spect are changing, and people are
talking with degree of independence
and good sense on political matters
that they never have shown before.
